s risks and uncertainties, which could
cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-
looking statements.

STAAR's current data on the accommodating properties of the Collamer
material are based on the observations or reports of individual independent
clinicians and have not been subjected to large scale clinical studies. STAAR
cannot assure that its further research will support a claim that either its
current Collamer lenses or future designs restore the eye's ability to
accommodate. If clinical research does not support these claims, or supports
only a narrow range of accommodation, STAAR's Collamer accommodation project
may not result in increased sales. STAAR's decision to pursue the development
and marketing of accommodating Collamer lens designs will depend on positive
results of initial feasibility studies, which are not complete. New lens
designs may require clinical research studies and applying for the FDA's
premarket approval, which are expensive and could result in delay or denial of
approval. Other risks and uncertainties include the negative effect of
worldwide recession on demand for products used in elective procedures such as
the Visian ICL, the possibility that negative publicity about complications of
LASIK could reduce demand for all refractive procedures, our limited capital
resources and limited access to financing, negative publicity resulting from
past correspondence with the FDA and the integrity hold placed on our clinical
activities, the challenge of managing foreign subsidiaries, the willingness of
surgeons and patients to adopt a new product and procedure and other factors
beyond our control, including the "risk factors" described in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. STAAR assumes no obligation to update
these forward-looking statements to reflect future events or actual outcomes
